Description
Welcome to Live Your Best Life, Unscripted, the podcast by Herbalife India that brings you honest, practical and transformative conversations around wellness, leadership, resilience and living your best life.
In this insightful episode, host Ajay Khanna sits down with Dr. Aditi Govitrikar, an MBBS doctor, Harvard-trained psychologist, former Mrs. World, actor and wellness advocate who brings together medical science, psychology and personal experience to help people understand what it truly means to live healthier for longer.
Growing older is inevitable.
But how we age, how energetic we feel and how well we maintain our physical and mental health are influenced by the choices we make every day.
In this episode, Healthy Ageing & Metabolism, Simplified, Dr. Aditi Govitrikar challenges common misconceptions about ageing, metabolism and lifestyle health, revealing why looking healthy on the outside does not always mean everything is functioning well within.
From understanding how metabolism changes with age to the importance of nutrition, muscle strength, quality sleep and emotional well-being, this conversation explores the foundations of healthy ageing and why taking care of our health should begin much earlier than we think.
Dr. Aditi also shares her personal experiences with stress, mindfulness and Vipassana meditation, discusses the hormonal changes women experience through different stages of life and explains why sustainable habits matter more than quick fixes.
If you've ever wondered whether slowing metabolism is unavoidable, how everyday habits influence long-term health or what it really takes to stay strong, active and independent as you grow older, this episode is for you.
